Valero Energy Corporation (VLO) encountered a drop in the market, however, the announcements of first quarter 2025 earnings results are due soon. The company continues to receive a consensus rating of 'Moderate Buy' from brokerages, with many acquiring additional shares. Analysts are touting VLO as one of the best refinery and crude oil stocks to invest in, despite a reduced price target from Piper Sandler. Purchases of Valero's shares have been reported from various financial institutions and the company has seen a 4.4% decrease in stock prices. The company announced a major bond deal and several dividend increases, despite facing refining woes. A notable advantage for Valero is their competitive standing in the energy sector and recent strategic decisions. Recent earnings have surpassed analyst estimates, with intrinsic value believed to be above the current share price. Meanwhile, a decline in the market cap has been barred by longer-term profit prospects. While there has been some divestment in shares, VLO’s bullish trend appears to remain afloat.
